Blackened Chicken Torta

[FONT=&quot]I had one of these recently at a restaurant (The Yard House) and tried to duplicate them here. First I searched the web for a Blackened Chicken rub recipe. I found this one on foodnetwork by Jeff Mauro. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]6 chicken breasts[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 cup butter[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 1⁄2 tablespoons paprika[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 teaspoon salt[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 1⁄2 teaspoons onion powder[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 1⁄2 teaspoons garlic powder[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 1⁄2 teaspoons cayenne pepper[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1⁄2 teaspoon white pepper[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1⁄2 teaspoon thyme[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1⁄2 teaspoon oregano[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT][FONT=&quot]1. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Coat both sides of thawed chicken with butter. Reserve.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]2. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Combine all seasonings in a shallow bowl.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]3. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Coat both sides of chicken.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Heat a heavy duty skillet until very hot, about 10 minutes.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]5. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Add butter to grease the bottom.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]6. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Sauté chicken over high heat for 5-7 minutes on each side.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
Here is the rub ready to go.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I pounded some chicken breasts out to around 1/2” thick. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I placed my CI skillet on the kamado in the lower position and let it get smoking hot and blackened the chicken.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I then toasted the torta roll.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Spread on some mayo, [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]some American Swiss cheese slices, a chicken breast[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]and some pickled red onion.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Then some avocado,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]lettuce,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]and tomato slice.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Here are the Plated shots with a Modern Times Lomaland Belgian-style ale.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Delicious. :becky:[/FONT]
